Hey Everyone,

I've been playing around with the Horns virtual instrument in Logic again and come up with the attached track. What do people think? Is it a little too busy in places.. (?) I was going for a big-band blues funk kind of vibe.

- I used Bias Amp 2 for guitar amp simulation (I played all parts on a LP 2015 Traditional).

- Drums are a hybrid EZ drummer kit based on the drumkit from hell (-- I generally like this kit; has some nice choked crash sounds) but with the progressive snare and a less metal-sounding kick.

Wondering also if some subtle keys here and there could benefit the track..

Thanks for listening,

Ben.

Excellent work!

However, I would use more reverb on the horns to put them back in the mix. It will help them sound less predictable, especially when using the same jabs more than a few times in a sequence. It will help faux in a live sound.

Kudos on your programming.

Thanks audiokid for the feedback. Never quite got the hook when it comes to adding reverb. I seem to always over do it or simply not add enough. Will have a go with the horns again though! Cheers.
